Or a colossal middle-finger to pearl clutching moral fascists who seem to think that diversity requires homogeny.
I must have missed part of the Northwestern story. What part of it has to do with diversity?
Ya, I don't know what happened or if anything happened but this letter seems like more a few guys who know they are in trouble said we gotta respond before something more happens...we'll write a letter and sign it the entire team.
BREAKING: Northwestern team issues statement denying severity of hazing claims, supports Pat Fitzgerald as coach
The Wildcat team provides its opinion after new claims have surfaced.www.insidenu.com
You think they are lying.
Since we have disagreement over what actually happened somebody is lying.

So then why would the report agree with the complainant that the things happenedESPN tonight. The plot thickens.
A current Northwestern player, who asked to remain anonymous, also told ESPN on Sunday that the former player, whose hazing allegations late in 2022 launched the investigation, informed him of a detailed plan with the sole objective to take down Fitzgerald. The current player on Sunday relayed a conversation he said he had early this year with the former player to Northwestern trustees and other influential university figures.
"He just kept emphasizing, 'Yeah, it'll be OK. I'm just trying to get Coach Fitz fired,'" the current player told ESPN. "I don't think he ever acknowledged what he's saying is not true. It was just like, 'I might embellish or exaggerate to get Coach Fitz fired.' He said his sole goal was to see Coach Fitz rot in jail.
"The truth is none of that stuff happened in our locker room."
Ex-player: Fitzgerald 'absolutely knew' of hazing
A former Northwestern football player on Sunday detailed his hazing allegations that sparked a university-commissioned investigation and said coach Pat Fitzgerald was aware of the conduct within the program.
Welcome to Tiffany's. If you have to ask about the price, then you can't afford it.
In this case, millions of dollars are at stake.
More was in response to the part he said at the end “that stuff didn’t happen”. The report would seem to differ unless he said something entirely different, which clearly the further info coming out saying it did happen doesn’t match this.
Umm, seems like you're the only one bringing this "top 20" stuff into the argument. No one else in this thread said that. Who are you arguing with?
It's impossible to predict whether a coach would stay or not, but NW has deep pockets, both from the B1G and from the Ryan family. If they were willing to pay, it's not out of the question that another solid coach would take that job and stick around. It will however be nearly impossible to find a guy who bleeds purple the way Fitz does.
You obviously haven’t read any coach rankings on this site or others the past few years
Fitz is literally not as good as they can get. I would argue he is the third best of their last 3 coaches.
Can they get those other two coaches? You're comparing Fitz to his predecessors, I'm not. I'm comparing him to who they could hire now, this day and age, 2023. The fact that they have had other good coaches in the past doesn't affect who they can hire now, does it?
Re: bolded - that's why we use the term "question", like I did. I said, "Others, including me...question whether anyone else..."
@Ewert86PC threw it out there as a straw man in post 122.
Who is Fitzpatrick? If you are going to talk out your ass about oaths, hearsay, and contracts, you could at least figure out who you are talking about.
The irony of you saying who are you debating and then posting this
